What is Colposcopy?
It’s a simple 10-15 minute procedure that closely examines your cervix, vagina, and vulva for signs of disease. It’s painless & performed right here in your gynecologist’s office.
You will be asked to lie on your back with your feet in supports, just like a pelvic exam or Pap test.

The doctor then places a metal speculum in your vagina to hold open the walls of your vagina so that the cervix is visible. A special magnifying instrument called a colposcope is positioned a few inches away from the vagina. It functions as a lighted binocular microscope to magnify the view of the cervix, vagina & vulvar surface.

Your doctor then applies an acetic acid such as vinegar which may cause a tingling or burning sensation, and Iodine. The solution helps highlight any areas of suspicious cells. If any suspicious areas are seen, your doctor will collect a small sample of tissue for lab testing. To collect this tissue, your doctor uses a sharp biopsy instrument.

What you will feel during the biopsy will depend on what type of tissue is being removed. A cervical biopsy does not hurt, but you may feel some pressure or cramping. While a vaginal biopsy can cause pain, so your doctor may administer a local anesthetic to help numb the area.
